I have been having the same issue. I updated my plugins after which I am experiencing this issue. 
Here's the logs:

Comment 3 Jiri Rechtacek 2014-02-05 09:23:51 UTC 
As a workaround delete whole the directory
C:\Users\Stephen\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\7.4\update

Fixed in the latest Dev build on NetBeans 8.0
